Twins Turn TWO!!

Happy Birthday Owen and Oliver!!  We had a fabulous day celebrating the boys' 2nd birthday on Sunday.  We got them some birthday balloons and decorated the kitchen - when they came down in the morning they loved it!  Oliver threw himself down on the floor and just stared up at the balloons and kicked his feet...I was lucky enough to catch this on video!


They boys diligently ate their breakfast (Oliver held tight to the Elmo balloon with his free hand the whole time) excited to go visit the "big fishy" we promised them at the National aquarium.  They all loved the aquarium - we saw lots of different fish, sharks, turtles, eels, sting ray, snakes, and alligators!




As usual, Oliver loving on his baby brother...
After the aquarium we came home for a quick lunch and nap before the boys' friends Jakob and Joslyn (also twins!) came over for dinner and cake.  It was so cute to watch them all eat pizza at the kid table and socialize.  The boys loved their Thomas the Train cake - they were definitely into the toy trains that topped the cake more than the cake itself.  Although, just like last year, Oliver did thoroughly enjoy his cake while Owen wasn't interested at all.  Spencie tried to sneak his hand into some cake on the table, but all the big kids watched him like hawks while they protected their plates!  The boys opened some Thomas pillows and pretended to sleep on them on the kitchen floor.  It was a very full, happy, and tiring day...everyone slept good that night, including mommy and daddy!

Cleaning up!


This last video is about 6 minutes long!  I put together a few shorter clips of us singing happy birthday, cake, and opening their choo choo pillows.
